The results were hilariously unimpressive Avocados reduced LDL ('bad') cholesterol a tiny bit, and changed the levels of a couple of antioxidants a tiny bit as wellpic.twitter.com/rF2czhzJgg

Another ~truly amazing~ thing about this study? The trial registration specifies 4 primary outcomes (total cholesterol, HDL, trigs, AND LDL) They only reported one I WONDER WHY THAT MIGHT BE????pic.twitter.com/TwaDjM733C
There is some mention of HDL cholesterol, but only in reference to CETP (enzyme changes), nothing on differences between diets and nothing at all on triglycerides or total cholesterol!!!pic.twitter.com/J85nBIjNaJ
In summary: - industry-funded study - showed pretty much no benefit for avocados - didn't report 3 out of 4 primary outcomes (!) - probably doesn't apply to most people anyway
